There's a new man. He's not my new man but I am nonetheless wildly fascinated by him. He is not wildly fascinated by me but this is yet to dent my enthusiasm for entertaining wild fantasies and wonderful improbable hopes.

I will stalk him in my imagination until the fantasy runs dry. I will crest grassy waves of hills and lie side by side in the sunlight, I will bounce possibilities across time and space until reality catches the long shot and stacks it neatly with my other failed clown shaped dreams. This is something you can try at home.

They must be fascinating indeed to remain interesting with such encumbrances.

I am of course already infinitely fascinating, its just that I am an acquired taste, like fig sorbet.

Do you have a secret as yet undiscovered identical twin brother?

Ah, alas, I'm am not fascinating and I am but rarely an acquired taste.

Sure you are, maybe people are so fascinated they are scared to say that they are.

Let me know how you go. We can have an online death of the dream party if it all goes horribly wrong. I'll wear a party hat and everything.

Will there be a conference line available?

Oh yes. If it all goes horribly wrong for us dreamers then we'll need a bi old conference line. The lovers, the dreamers and me. Sing along now. All of us under its spell, I know that I'm probably tragic.

Oh no, I'm far too lazy to be anything, let alone fascinating!

That's the beauty of being fascinating, it requires no conscious effort.
